Public Policy & Regulation Partner Karen Walker authored an article for The Florida Bar Administrative Law Section Newsletter titled, "Area Agencies on Aging and the APA: The Saga Continues."

The article discusses issues relating to Community Care for the Elderly (CCE) lead agency procurements by area agencies on aging (AAAs), which conduct competitive procurements pursuant to statutory authority and under contract with the Florida Department of Elder Affairs (DOEA), and the "saga" that has emerged from these issues. It is a story that involves many players and twists and turns, including chapters that have been written by the First, Third and Fourth District Courts of Appeal, the Florida Legislature, the Division of Administrative Hearings (DOAH) and DOEA.
